Lost.?Edward Bolton, a hard-work>
' i- uof nraalr
ing colored Dian.soia mscuugn n-.
and in lesp than aD hoar lost ?25 of the
money oat of his pocket. This is &
heavy loss for a poor man; and if found
and returned to the owner by any one
they will be liberally rawarded.
Go for Them.?If any person
swears that he or anybody else was
unlawfully prevented from voting in
Camden on the 5th inst., he com*
mits perjury, and our advice is to go
for all such characters, and have
them sent to the penitentiary.
The New Methodist Chubch. ?
We are requested to state that all persons
who subscribed and promised to
pay certain amounts for the purpose of
copleting the new Methodist Church
would confer a great on the officers by
-A ? " ? ?!">? or? rrp?aflv
paying up ai uucc, ? p,.?j
in need of funds to carry on the work.
intimidators.-The following named
gentlemen have been arrested under
charges of intimidation and violation
of the election law: Messre. Ario
Niles, J. E. Vaughan, W. 0. Nettles,
W. R. Reasonover, B. M. Smith, H. E.
Beard and A. F. Davis. They all gave
bond for their appearance in Columbia
next Monday for trial.
A Suggestion.?It is suggested by
ooe of the "intimidatore" that, instead
of going to Columbia by rail in the custody
of an officer, all hands gite bond
for their appearance at Court in Columbia,
and when tbetimo comes (if it ever ]
does) go across the country io wagons,
carrying their own provisions and
making the trip one of the most bounds
less enjoyment.
Ubiquitous.?Tho affidavits, upon
which several of the insimidation warrants
were based, were made by one
Wilson Williams, who it seems was
everywhere at one time on the day of tho
election. A modest dose of the law for
perjury will doubtless have a healthful
effect upon him. Actionp for perjury
hava been begun not only against him
but several others.
Dead.?We are sorry to learn of the
death of Dr. Daniel Reynolds, ot Spring
Hill. He received a stroke of paraly'*
isis some eiebt weeks ago, from which
be was laid up until the 14th insl?
when he received another stroke, which
caused bis death. The doctor was well
known throughQut the whole Spring
Hill section, and in his death the commanity
have experienced a heavy loss.
Auction Sale.?There will be a
large lot of fine new carriogos. buggies,
spring wagons, etc., sold at auction in
Camden on Saturday, and any person
desiring anything in this line would do
well to attend it. The work is all new
and first-class, and from the largest and
most complete factory in the world.
You can get any kind?two-seated carriages,
phaetons, spring wagons and
top buggies. Now is the time if you
want a bargain. Remember, next Saturday,
the 23d inst.
Equine Mortality.?Mr. W. S
Dellinger has lost three valuable horse:
within as many weeks, recently, fron
what is pronounced by experts to b<
blind staggers. Mr. W. E. Osteen als<
lost last his valuable saddle-horse bj
the same disease, or Saturday last. W<
%have heard of several other losses of i
;n f},;, countv. Th(
BILU Iiat vuai aviv.*u ? #
cacse of this singular disease may bi
traced to use of river com soared bj
f the ciently and while we are not aaffi
freshet; cognizant of the facts to say i
I is so, we throw it oat as a suggestion.
wfer The negroes in Kershaw own on ar
mf average about two dogs to each fau>r
llf">3k*
i Hard to Realize.?The negroes
< around here can hardly realize that
things have taken a change, and are
' not now what they "use to was" in the
"good old daygof carpet-bagism." Perjury
is no crime in their eyes so long as
the white man alone is the sufferer?to
be dragged around and put in jail, and
compelled to submit to all kinds of indignities
at their hands upon charges
trumped up and sworn by them, but
which in truth has no foundation whatever.
The nepro must understand that
the white man can now have a little
share of justice on his side, too. Onesided
law in thisstate, like carpet-fug- i
isuj, has passed away forever, and the
sooner the negro becomes aware of this {
fact the better it will be for him, j
Rather " Cheeky."?E. J. Conway
hn6 in circulation a petition, which '
is signed by many of our best citizens, 1
praying the Legislature to give him a
position in its service when it meets. '
His pretensions to the conspicuous fa- 1
vor is that he voted the Democratic
ticket at the recent election. It ap- ?
< A t%n t U nt AAntTAKflmn A P T? T 1
jycaio i \j uo vnav uic wuu v v-i jiuii ui v. v
Conway to Democratic doctrine is rather
late in the day for him to bank on. If <:
the Legislature has any favors to be- r
stow on colored Democrats from Kershaw
county, it should at least first con- j
sider the claims of suclf men as Foozle
Cantey, who stood by our party in its
darkest days, when it was almost
worth a colored man's life to say he
was a Democrat; and when E. J. Con- 1
way was one among the most blatant
Radiclas in Kershaw county.
An Interesting Love Letter.? j
The followiog loving epistle was picked o
up near Camden the other day, by a t
young gentlemen, and shown to u?.
It is alotter from a girl to her sweet r
heart; and though she is uneducated. a
shows that she is well acquainted with c'
the verb "love." It is no gentle
flame, either; but, in the fullness of her .
heart, like a valcano, it gushes forth .
defying all human efforts to control c
it. We give it just as it was written
:
Mr. Joseph B my Dear do make J
up your mine and less Marry my Dear
my luv shall never di and my luv i do
luv yu. i am Redey to Marry my
honey yu don't know how it fret me i cant
Res tell yu be my Dearling husban my <
luv my duv, i do luv you. Make up 1
your mine an less us Marry i will close '
my letter Buy say i Remaine your true 1
luv Miss Nancy R. at home; to Mr. Joseph
B." ]
Livelt.?Trial Jnstice DePass's of- ^
fice presented quite a lively appearance :
on last Monday morning. Several
gentlemen bad been arrested upon
charges of intimidatiou by United
States Deputy Marshal Demus "Brown- 1
field upon the affidavits of certain ne 1
groes. The gentlemen gave bond for 1
their appearance and immediately had
warrants issued by Justice DeFass for
the arrest of their accusers upon charges
of perjury. This was an uniookedl'or ,
event by the negroes, and it created
quite a stir amoog them. Demus was
arrested also upon a charge of obtaining
goods under false pretences, and
- ? v__j ?. ?r
required to give oonu m me sum v.
$500 for his appearance at the next
term of Court, or go to jail. He failed
to obtain a bondsman, so he is now
restine in prison where he will have
time to ponder o'er the trials and
troubles of the transgressor Should
he succeed in giviDg bond in this case,
there are several over charges of a like
I nature hanging over his head.
Drunk Again.?Mike was iu town
again last week and drunk, as usual.
As we passed by he accosted us with :
I say, Mr. Edithur, do you think
we will carry the election ?"
I E. "Why, haven't you heard ?" The
j election is over, and we have earned
I every county in the State hut Beau
fort.
M. "You don't gay so! Glorious
news ! I feel like hollering. (Yells at
the top of his voice the following exclamations
:) Whoopee ! sic semper
tyranis ! e pluribus unum "in awampo
j op stumpibus " '
E. "Keep quiet, Mike ; the police j
will take you in again if you don't."
M. "The news is ton good; I can't
| stand it without hollering. Whoopee '
j i hurrah for me and Hampton. I knew
. we woujd beat."
Policeman steps up. and says: "Gome
sir ; you are disturbing the whole neigh.
borhood with your noise. You must
i go to the lock-up."
> M. "Take me any where. I am
3 j satisfied just so I can holler. Two
3 j thousand majority! whoopee ! I feel big
j enough to eat up two carpet baggers
3 and a mean dog."
i' About this time the loci-up was
s | reached, and Mike went iD hurrabiog
> for him and Hampton.
[ ^ If you sow oats now, and they come
t; up before a freeze, the oats will be all
' right, but we are not 'prepared to eay
' in view of the erratic condition of the
i | weather whether the oats will come up
. before the freeze, or the freero will
J cpme up before tbe oats.
IJICEVITIES.

The Board of County Commissioners
met last week and passed many bill?*,
but pave no checks on the Treasurer as
that gentleman had not officially informed
them yet that there was any
money io the treasury for the county.
A painful rumor made its appearance
ou our streets last Tuesday, to the effect
that the condition of Governor Hampton
was very critical. We are glad to
moke the statement that the rumor had
no fouodation in fact, and that the condition
of his excellsncy is as well i\s
could be expected.
Since the country papers have stopped

Personal.?We are glad to see that
Capt. J. D. Dunlap has sufficiently recovered
from his accident of a few
weeks ago to be out again.
Messrs. Fifger and Peixotto arrived
in town on Tuesday last with a large lot
of carriages, buggies, etc., which they
intend to sell at the lowest cash prices.
The Cotton Market.
Camden S. C., Nov. 20, 1878.
The cotton market shows a little more
spirit this week. with.a slight rise and
much better feeling. We quote prices
at, 7 J @ 8}c; but only the finest grades
bring the latter figure. There is a
slight falling off in the receipts for the
week; we understand though that there
is still a good deal of cotton held back
in the country for a rise in the market.
The State Fair.
A Pleasant Trip, and a Good Turnout of thf
People?Kershaw well Represented, and
Takes Some of the Premiums.
I
Wednesday last with satchel in hand i
I Mt this place to see what I could at i
the State Fair, and (o report to our i
readers as best I could, what I did see.
Tn keeping with that practice which has |
been as true to the history of the South

oa its existence has been, we left at tbat
most delightful of all hours in winter,
5^ A. M. Of course "what matters it
to Camden/' says Mr, Fisher, the new
fledged receiver in charge. "They are
used to husks, and anything finer and
nicer would choko thorn." Well, un.
der the genial care of Capt. Gilbert and
pleasant company wo iu good time
reached J?iugville ?time enough to
await four hours for the up train and
if our watches had given us credit for
what we thought we were eotitled to, a
big balance would have been in our favor
as far as time goes. A telegraph of- <
fice, a grave-yard, au egg-saloon, with <
music in abundance from the Wateree
mosquito, quite familiar to us, are the
charms of Kingville.
However, after ample time to think
of the delightful courtesies (which at
least we thought that we were entitled
to during Fair week) from this pattern
" * ?? e?A .
or a .Kailroaa, soon again no iuuuu
ourselves on the go, and at 1J o'clock
we had reached the Fair Grounds, and (
were looking first at pretty women, fine
hordes, practical matters, and stirred
too by the strains of soul inspiring
music. After a welcome, and a shake
of the hand from many an old friend,
soon our inspection began. Now, as far
as ray capacity goes to give you an interesting
graphic or minute account of
what I saw is impossible. Tn giving
a faint idea descriptive of the hogs,
horses, potatoes, beets, onions &c., I
might rank as third class, and when I
came to the wines, jellies and sweatmeats
I can only say that I like them,
but when I go further into the e^tan.elements
of the silk work, needle-work,
quiltings, crocheting, .&c., why for me
to draw a pretty picture, you might as
well ask the ocean to upheave its dead,
or the pyramid to stand upon its npex.
By general interpretation, however, all
were considered first claffc, and reflected
no little credit upon the managers.
The exhibition of stock I thought
! very good ; and the horses unusually
fine. I was truly gratified to observe
here, that. Kershaw county occupied a
prominent and flattering position. This
wns more gratifying from the fact that
while i'd all of the other attributes that
make her important as a promi nont part
in the whole, in this line she has been
heretofore sadly wanting I mean not
reflection upon onr good county when f
say thatshe ranks second almost to all.
as far as her internal improvements go.
or her spirit of enterprise is shown,
But I am digressing. Again to thehorses.
IA premium on "driving horse's open to
the world" was offered. Mr. J. D. McDowall,
of our town, presented his magni'ficent
pair against two others shown
r^.mectivelv bv Governor Hampton, and
? r - v ^
8om e other gentleman whose name my
, mauosenpt failti to mention. After
careful inspection, the judges awarded
our townsman the premium, and most
worthily so, too, do I think. Not satisfied
with this, and feeling: suro of his
1 ground. Mr. McD? exhibited one of
i those same beautiful animals in the
i arena as the best single harness horse.
, open to the world; with equal accuracy
again, the blue ribbon bung from his
head, and doubtless the victorious exhibitor
felt that enough glory was his
> for this season. Next in line came the
premium for the best thoroughbred colt
orre year old. South Carolina raised.
' The elegant and beautiful little lady
" "Miss Lula." tho property of Mr. Thos.
t W. Lang, bore with erace and ease her
t well earned blue ribbon. She is a
beauty*
Now, as it is usual upon all occassione
of public moment or notice, T first take
i the substantiate and then with delicacy
I" touch those of a more tender nature. I
come to the beautiful home made silk
by Miss IMattie Team, of Western Wa8
teree. In her presence I was shown
jr this tasty monument of her energy and
n worth, and really, while I make no apologies
for my first acknowledgements ic
this letterl am almost solemn when I say
" that the exquisite and charming silk
would have fascinated the mostscrupnis
lous and appreciative eye. Of course sh(
)t took the first prize. This, as far as 1
f. know, completes the list from Kershaw
and thanks to those of our people whr
had the good courage ro lend to Kersha*
^ their might in the struggle for a proper
nnnreciation of what she has, and wha
-r i
' she can do.
e The general appearance of everythinj
1, was very cheerful; and there seemed t<
I be but little excitement upon politica
matters, eavo a general rejoicing ove
our gr*at vic'ory. It is generally con
T ceded that Governor Hampton will, if
>f he desires go to the United States Sen
is ate, and the Speakership has simmerec
c? down to Gen. J. D. Kennedy, one of ou
. worthy townsmen, and tho Hon. J (
Sheppard. In this connection it give
k" no little pleasure at ih* universal eneom
iuniB that were heaped upon the hea
ofGenl. Keonedj. From ono end of
the Stato to the other I heard bat one
word, and that was a well done for "his
invaluable services. It is well merited,
and a bright future awaits him in the
hearts of our people.
